These are really nice to use, I prefer the softer prismas for general coloring (these are probably better for fine detail because they hold their point a little better). I also prefer the more vivid colors of Prisma. I think these would be a really good option for anyone drawing landscapes - or just prefer colors to be a little muted.

I use these in my high school art classroom. I wanted pencils that are blend able without massive wax buildup to teach techniques used to create realistic compositions. These pencils are perfect and great for a tight budget. My students are amazed with how professional their final pieces look.

Really enjoy using these pencils along with pastel sticks for doing artwork. These pencils allow me to add small details to make artwork look more realistic. A good value as well as getting outstanding service when ordering. If shipment is expected on a specific date it has always arrived at the specified time. Great company, great products. Keep up the great work.
